Let $\mathds{k}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$. We give the complete classification of pointed Hopf algebras over $\mathds{k}$ of dimension $p^2q$ for a prime number $q$. The result shows that there are finitely…

We complete the classification of Hopf algebras whose infinitesimal braiding is a principal Yetter-Drinfeld realization of a braided vector space of Cartan type $G_2$ over a cosemisimple Hopf algebra. We develop a general formula for a…

It is proved that the entire multi-parameter (small-)quantum groups of symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras can be realized as certain subquotients of the cotensor Hopf algebras. This is an axiomatic construction. Hopf 2-cocycle deformations…

A fundamental feature of quantum groups is that many come in pairs of mutually dual objects, like finite-dimensional Hopf algebras and their duals, or quantisations of function algebras and of universal enveloping algebras of Poisson-Lie…

In a previous work \cite{AS2} we showed how to attach to a pointed Hopf algebra A with coradical $\k\Gamma$, a braided strictly graded Hopf algebra R in the category $_{\Gamma}^{\Gamma}\Cal{YD}$ of Yetter-Drinfeld modules over $\Gamma$. In…

We construct finite-dimensional Hopf algebras whose coradical is the group algebra of a central extension of an abelian group. They fall into families associated to a semisimple Lie algebra together with a Dynkin diagram automorphism. We…

We show for bicommutative graded connected Hopf algebras that a certain distributive (Laplace) subgroup of the convolution monoid of 2-cochains parameterizes certain well behaved Hopf algebra deformations. Using the Laplace group, or its…

We introduce a family of three parameters 2-dimensional algebras representing elements in the Brauer group BQ(k,H_4) of Sweedler Hopf algebra H_4 over a field k. They allow us to describe the mutual intersection of the subgroups arising…

An example of a finite dimensional factorizable ribbon Hopf C-algebra is given by a quotient H=u_q(g) of the quantized universal enveloping algebra U_q(g) at a root of unity q of odd degree. The mapping class group M_{g,1} of a surface of…

In this paper we report on results of our investigation into the algebraic structure supported by the combinatorial geometry of the cyclohedron. Our new graded algebra structures lie between two well known Hopf algebras: the…

The classification of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras with group S_3 was finished in "The Nichols algebra of a semisimple Yetter-Drinfeld module", arXiv:0803.2430v1 [math.QA], by Andruskiewitsch, Heckenberger and Schneider: there…

For a given group $G$, we construct an invariant of flat $G$-connections on 4-manifolds from a finite type involutory quasitriangular Hopf $G$-algebra. Hopf $G$-algebras are generalizations of Hopf algebras, equipped with gradings by $G$.…

We construct finite $R$-matrices for the first fundamental representation $V$ of two-parameter quantum groups $U_{r,s}(\mathfrak{g})$ for classical $\mathfrak{g}$, both through the decomposition of $V\otimes V$ into irreducibles…

We classify finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras with abelian coradical, up to isomorphism, and show that they are cocycle deformations of the associated graded Hopf algebra. More generally, for any braided vector space of diagonal type…

We replace the group of group-like elements of the quantized enveloping algebra $U_q({\frak{g}})$ of a finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebra ${\frak g}$ by some regular monoid and get the weak Hopf algebra ${\frak{w}}_q^{\sf d}({\frak…

We derive the universal R-matrix of the quantum-deformed enveloping algebra of centrally extended sl(2|2) using Drinfeld's quantum double construction. We are led to enlarging the algebra by additional generators corresponding to an sl(2)…

We prove finite generation of the cohomology ring of any finite dimensional pointed Hopf algebra, having abelian group of grouplike elements, under some mild restrictions on the group order. The proof uses the recent classification by…

Let $\hat{\frak g}$ be an untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebra. The quantum group $U_h(\hat{\frak g})$ (over $\mathbb{C}[[h]]$) is known to be a quasitriangular Hopf algebra: in particular, it has a universal $ R $--matrix, which yields an $…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a decomposable plane curve over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic 0. That is, $\mathcal{C}$ is defined in $k^2$ by an equation of the form $g(x) = f(y)$, where $g$ and $f$ are polynomials of degree at…

We study a Hopf algebra $H$, which is finitely generated and projective over a commutative ring $k$, as a $P$-Frobenius algebra. We define modular functions in this setting, and provide a complete proof of Radford's formula for the fourth…
